Seignosse (40510) is a town in the south of the Landes, on the Atlantic coast, between Hossegor and Vieux-Boucau. The Basque Country begins about thirty kilometres away. Its inhabitants are called Seignossais.

In Seignosse bourg, in a quiet little street, 900 m from the shops: bakery, butcher, greengrocer, minimarket, tobacconist-newsagent and bike rental. The exact address is shared when you book.

Seignosse has two faces. Le Penon, on the ocean side, is the seaside resort, very lively in summer, mostly with apartments and holiday residences. The bourg, where the house is, is the heart of the village, between pine forest and ponds. It stays quiet all year round and has its own shops. Staying in the bourg means enjoying the ocean 12 minutes away by car and coming back in the evening to the calm of a real house with a garden.

The two towns border each other and share the same surf beaches and the same lake. Hossegor is more urban and more upmarket, with its shops and nightlife. Seignosse is more natural, with its forest, ponds and large wild beaches. From the house, Hossegor is 7 km away: you get the best of both.

The Seignosse beaches (Les Estagnots, Les Bourdaines, Les Casernes, Le Penon) and Lake Hossegor are about 12 minutes away by car. Allow a little longer by bike, along the cycle paths.

Yes, if you only swim in lifeguarded areas, between the flags, during the summer season. The Landes ocean is powerful, with waves, currents (the "baïnes") and tides: always follow the lifeguards' instructions. For a calmer swim with children, choose Lake Hossegor, preferably at high tide.
